Configuration Precedence Examples
The following example shows how the Cisco MeetingPlace Audio Server system determines which
language a caller hears when entering a meeting:
System Configurations
•
•
•
•
The default language is U.S. English.
Ports are configured for Japanese.
A U.S. English user has a profile that is set to use U.S. English.
A meeting is scheduled by a Canadian French user who has set the meeting default language to
French.
System Behavior
1. When the U.S. English user calls to attend the scheduled meeting, the prompts play first in Japanese.
2. The caller then hears the prompt “To select English, press 5” in U.S. English and the prompt “To
select French, press 6” in Canadian French.
3. The caller enters the profile ID, and the prompt language immediately changes to U.S. English.
4. The caller enters the meeting ID and continues to hear U.S. English prompts until joining the
meeting.
5. While the caller is in the meeting, prompts play to all meeting participants in Canadian French;
however, prompts play only to this caller—when the caller presses the # key, for example—in U.S.
English.
Language Preferences
Within the configuration precedence, the following types of language preferences affect which
languages callers hear and when they hear them:
•
•
•
•
Port-Group Level Language Preferences
•
•
•
U.S. English is the default language and is considered an installed language.
If you do not configure the port group to use a specific language, U.S. English plays.
If you install UK English, the Cisco MeetingPlace Audio Server system does not offer U.S. English.
–
For example, if you install a total of three languages (U.S. English, UK English, and Japanese)
and you configure the ports to play Japanese, the welcome prompt offers only UK English and
Japanese.

Meeting-Level Language Preferences
•
•
•
•
•
•
The meeting language defaults to the profile language of the meeting scheduler unless another
language is specified in the caller’s user profile.
If the caller selects Attend a Meeting or MeetingNotes access, the voice prompts proceed in the port
language until the caller enters the meeting.
If the caller selects Profile access, the prompts change to the profile language selection after the
caller logs in.
If the caller selects a language, the caller hears the language access prompts again in the selected
language.
Prompts that play to all participants in the meeting play in the meeting-language setting; prompts
that play to individuals play in the user-profile language setting.
Prompts that play when dialing out to a guest participant are determined by the profile setting for
the guest.
User-Profile Level Language Preferences
•
•
Callers can only change their user profile language preferences through the MeetingTime client.
Callers can only choose a language before attending a meeting. After the caller chooses Attend a
Meeting, the user-profile language plays; before the caller chooses Attends a Meeting, the default
language plays.
Examples of Language Preferences
The following examples shows how language preferences affect the outcome of system, meeting, and
user-level preference selections:
Three-Language System With Unconfigured Port Using the Default Language Example
The welcome greeting plays, and the caller is offered the following selections:
•
•
•
•
“Welcome to MeetingPlace” in U.S. English
“To select English, press 1” in U.S. English
“To select Japanese, press 2” in Japanese
“To select French, press 3” in Canadian French

Submitting a Service Request
Using the online TAC Service Request Tool is the fastest way to open S3 and S4 service requests. (S3
and S4 service requests are those in which your network is minimally impaired or for which you require
product information.) After you describe your situation, the TAC Service Request Tool provides
recommended solutions. If your issue is not resolved using the recommended resources, your service
request is assigned to a Cisco TAC engineer. The TAC Service Request Tool is located at this URL:
For S1 or S2 service requests or if you do not have Internet access, contact the Cisco TAC by telephone.
(S1 or S2 service requests are those in which your production network is down or severely degraded.)
Cisco TAC engineers are assigned immediately to S1 and S2 service requests to help keep your business
operations running smoothly.
To open a service request by telephone, use one of the following numbers:
Asia-Pacific: +61 2 8446 7411 (Australia: 1 800 805 227)
EMEA: +32 2 704 55 55
USA: 1 800 553-2447
For a complete list of Cisco TAC contacts, go to this URL:
Definitions of Service Request Severity
To ensure that all service requests are reported in a standard format, Cisco has established severity
definitions.
Severity 1 (S1)—Your network is “down,” or there is a critical impact to your business operations. You
and Cisco will commit all necessary resources around the clock to resolve the situation.
Severity 2 (S2)—Operation of an existing network is severely degraded, or significant aspects of your
business operation are negatively affected by inadequate performance of Cisco products. You and Cisco
will commit full-time resources during normal business hours to resolve the situation.
Severity 3 (S3)—Operational performance of your network is impaired, but most business operations
remain functional. You and Cisco will commit resources during normal business hours to restore service
to satisfactory levels.
Severity 4 (S4)—You require information or assistance with Cisco product capabilities, installation, or
configuration. There is little or no effect on your business operations.
